Seems like the pre-order schedule was really tight for these...3 weeks?
Did anyone else reserve some. I placed an order for each of the MBTA SKUs after the pre-order deadline and hoping there will be enough produced.

Curious to hear everyone's experience with the earlier run of these cars

So do I keep pushing for Kawasaki cars or just settle for these?

I had the same thought process...ultimately I decided that these will be RTR in a paint scheme used by MBTA. Although the model is not accurate to the prototype on the MBTA, they will still look pretty good on the layout. Especially in a mixed consist with the rapido single level MBTA coaches.

What's the story with the Kawasaki cars....does Atlas offer them in larger scales?

Please keep on pushing!
Were Kawasaki cars MBTA uses not as widely used as the ones Atlas makes?
